"Hello Zach, I'm Henry. Vincent, Spurs staff. Come with me this afternoon! ”

"Yes Mr. Vincent!" Zach replied.

"Hello, I'm Haugist. Hurley. This year's freshman in high school, from the West Marlen Memorial Middle School in Las Vegas, Nevada. Hogist introduced himself.

"You're the madman who made a five-double!" Zack. Ravan exclaimed.

"I'm glad you've heard of me...... But isn't your wording a bit rude? Hogist had a helpless look on his face.

"Ahh I'm sorry! I'm too open-mouthed! I'll be sure to pay attention next time! Ravan hurriedly apologized.

"It's okay, let's go to dinner! I'm so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back! "Hoggist and Zach. LaVine high-fived and hugged him, which was a formal acquaintance.

"Kids, come with me!" Henry led the two to the parking lot and walked straight to a camouflage-painted Hummer H2.

"Your car is so magnificent!" Zach drooled with envy.

"There are the famous Alamo Fortress and Lachlan Air Force Base near San Antonio, and the Spurs are also a team managed in a paramilitary style, so I got such a car that fits the company's image and temperament, and this car has a lot of space, so it's very convenient to pick up big players like you!"

Hoggist sat in the co-pilot, Henry started the car, and Hougist looked at the slowly regressing scenery on both sides, and suddenly had the illusion that he could see the world. Sure enough, different cars give people different feelings, and Mopar, who used to sit in the past, gives himself a cool feeling of "I'm more handsome than you".

The car quickly drove into a large shopping mall, and Laven asked curiously, "Aren't you going to take us to the riverside walk for dinner?" How did you park in a shopping mall? ”

"It's easy to park and it's a few minutes walk to the river from the back door of this large shopping mall. Let's take two steps! ”

A few people went out of the mall, and Hougist saw that, as Henry described on the plane, there was a long stretch of green not far away. Walking to the river, looking down, the buildings on both sides of the creek emerge from the shady greenery. Down to the trail on the riverbank, the souvenir shops on both sides of the river are full of Tex-style special souvenirs. Zack. LaVine was quickly attracted to a denim shop, and his feet stopped as if they were rooted.

"This shop is so cool! This hat is good! "Zach. LaVine picked up a denim hat and tried it on, feeling very good.

"You're one vest away from going to San Antonio's three-week Livestock Festival every February!" Hoggist teased.

"Whose animal do you scold? We were a livestock show and a cowboy festival, two different things! Henry corrected, "Animals are used for display at festivals, and we celebrate Stampede, so we dress up like Zach is now, and then compare cowboy skills or something......

"Is it better than a duel? It's two people who take ten steps back to back, turn around and shoot, and see who is the fastest gun? Ravan asked excitedly.

"How can a duel be compared, it will cost you a life! We're comparing practical skills like bull riding, haven't you seen a bull riding competition? Every February, the Spurs have a long road trip because the AT&T Center is used to host a bull riding competition. Henry explained.

"That's boring, a cowboy should be like Clint. Eastwood's chivalry in Red Dead Redemption is what drives it! "Said Zach. Ravan grabbed the toy revolver on the shelf and struck Haugist twice.

"Get on the side!" Haugist hurriedly opened Zack's pistol.

"Just kidding, don't mind!" Zack. LaVine raised his hands to show that he was not provocative.

"Alright, alright, Henry, let's go, I'm dying of hunger." Hogist urged Henry towards the restaurant.

"Hey! Ay! Wait for me! Boss, I want this hat! LaVine paid and chased him out with his hat on. A big man in sportswear, with a denim felt hat on his head, looks very stupid, and passers-by look sideways.

"Dude, you're so stupid, take off your hat!" Hogist persuaded.

"How is that possible! How cool this hat is! Wearing it I feel like Indiana. Jones! ”

Henry takes the arguing duo of Hougist and Laven to a nearby Mexican-style tavern whose proprietress is a distant relative of Miranda, who used to eat here as a child.

The three of them pushed the door and entered the store, and the waiters all knew Henry, so they took the initiative to take them to the place where Henry usually sits.

"Two servings of fried fish fillet, two servings of tacos for all flavors, and three servings of cactus black pepper steak." Henry ordered the dish without even looking at the recipe.

After a while, the dishes were served one after another, and Hoggist asked curiously, "How can cacti be eaten?" ”

"Of course, the cactus is the essence of this dish, and the cactus berries are sweet and sour. Moreover, it is high in potassium, low in sodium, low in sugar, and the sugar content is lower than that of lettuce and cucumber, which is a good fat reduction product. Henry explained.

"Then I'm going to try it!" Hoggist cuts a steak drizzled with black pepper sauce and cactus sauce and serves it in his mouth with a fork. Suddenly, a spicy taste exploded in his mouth, like magma gushing; This is followed by a refreshing sweet and sour taste that sweeps away all the heat like a fire extinguisher, and this magical taste makes Haugist linger and want to stop.

Zack. Seeing Hoggist's intoxicated expression, Ravan also tried it, and when he put the steak in his mouth, his expression was even more exaggerated, and even tears flowed down his face.

"What? Can't you eat spicy? I'm choking on tears! Hougist asked, puzzled.

"Of course not, it's this steak that's so delicious, I'm moved to tears!" Zach explained.

"I don't see that you can have such delicate emotions as a person with a big grin. What a human being who is unseemly! Hogist shook his head and said.

"Hey, how do you know that my personality is very aggressive?"

"You can tell from what you say and do with your brain!"

"My mom used to say that about me, too! You're as good as my mother! I'll mess with you from now on! Zach said happily.

As the three of them tasted the food, Hougist suddenly thought of something, and asked Henry: "I have completed the procedures for entering the camp, and I have already boarded your thief ship, can you tell me the purpose of the Spurs' training camp now?" ”

"Isn't it just an act of giving back to the community, giving you a chance to learn from NBA-level players, coaches, and trainers, so that you can learn more." Henry's answer was official and perfunctory.

Hoggist didn't eat this, his eyes rolled to his heart, he lowered his head and repeatedly tied the cauliflower on the plate with a fork, and said resentfully: "Alas~ I thought we were already friends!" But I can't even get a word of truth, it seems that I am self-inflicted! ”

Henry hurriedly explained: "What I said is the truth! This camp is held every year in order to give you access to more professional and advanced training. ”

"That's only part of the truth, you have a national high school student invitation training camp, and you have your own purpose, right? In capitalist society, there is no such thing as benefiting others and not benefiting ourselves, we can improve our abilities through this training camp, but what benefits do the Spurs want to gain through this training camp? ”

"This ......," Henry said again.

"You can't say? Have a non-disclosure agreement? Hougist asked.

"I can't say whether it's or not, but I agree with you." Henry confessed in disguise.

"Then let me ask you, are the Spurs scouting promising high school students to gather information for future drafts?"

"Your point of view is interesting, and I support it." Henry acquiesced.

"Did the Spurs' huge success in the low-pick draft come from this training camp?"

"That's a very good idea for me!" Henry continued to acquiesce.

And sure enough, it was! Jeremy Lin was right. Zack. Ravan looked puzzled on the side, "What are you talking about, why can't I understand it at all?" ”

"It's okay, you don't need to understand, you just need to follow me in the training camp! Eat it. Hogist said to Zack.

"Okay, I'm not interested in what you guys say, but can I eat two more servings of this steak?" Zach really has a big heart, and this matter is brought by Hoggist in a word.

"Man! Two more cactus black pepper steaks! Henry greeted the waiter from his seat.

……

After tackling 5 servings of cactus black pepper steak, Zach. Ravan burped and threw down his knife and fork.

"Have you eaten enough?" Henry looked at the stacked iron plates in front of Zach and wanted to cry without tears. This kid is honest and honest, and he eats something worthy of his stomach.

"Almost, I usually have a better appetite at night." Ravan patted his stomach and said.

Thinking that Miss Raz would bleed profusely when she invited her to dinner at night, Henry's state of mind was a little more balanced. "Later, go back and pick your own dormitory, it's all a two-person suite, you are the first batch of players to come, and there are still a lot of empty rooms."

"Then I'll share a room with you!" Ravan said to Haugist.

"Before I promise you, you answer me a question, you don't have foot odor and armpit odor, right?" Hoggist asked.

“…… Of course not! ”

"Alright then, then I'll take you in!"

"Hey, the dormitory is chosen at random, how do you say as if you are the head of the household?" Zach laughed.

"Let's go, I'll take you on a boat tour of the San Antonio River, then visit the museum, and tomorrow we'll go to Alamo and Lachlan Air Force Base." Henry led the two out of the restaurant.

……

After an afternoon of playing, Henry returned to the players' quarters with the two, and Miss Raz arrived as scheduled to treat the three to a seafood feast at the Las Canary Islands restaurant.

During the dinner, Miss Raz didn't care much about Zach, who was in charge of the reception. Laven, but a vigorous search for topics to communicate with Henry. Finally, Miss Raz agreed to go with Henry on the next day. After the meal, Miss Raz, who had only drunk two glasses of champagne, said that she was drunk and that she had to be sent home by Henry. Henry dropped them off at the dormitory, and then drove away with a slightly drunken Miss Raz.

Back at the dormitory, Zach leaned over and gossiped and asked, "Did you say Miss Raz liked Mr. Vincent?" ”

"Yo, do you see that?" Hoggist was surprised, and people like Zach shouldn't be so gossipy.

"Do you think Mr. Vincent knows Miss Raz's mind?" Zach guessed.

"Even you can see it, can't Henry see it?" Hougist gave Zach a blank look.

"So will they ...... tonight You know? Zach smiled meaningfully.

"I'm sorry, I'm not even 15 years old, I don't understand what you're talking about!" Hoggist said seriously. In fact, Hougist knew very well that judging from the chat on the plane and the attitude that Henry was more polite to Miss Raz at the dinner table—to put it bluntly, he rejected people thousands of miles away, and Henry would not do anything with Miss Raz. But think about Miss Raz, who invited everyone to such a high-end restaurant when they first met, and the people were very welcoming, she should be a good marriage partner. It's been more than 6 years since Miranda died, and it's time for Henry to come out of the shadows and start over.

"You're so boring!" Laven pouted, walked to the window, saw that there was a field of lights downstairs, looked back at the wall clock on the wall, it was still early, so he pointed downstairs and asked Haugist: "How is it, I ate so much at night, do you want to go down and play and digest it?" ”

"Good! I don't know your level yet! Let me try your depths! Hoggist was also eager to give it a try.

"And say you don't understand! The yellow joke is very skillful! Zach looked at Haugist in admiration.

"What a thing!" Hoggist looked inexplicable, but Zach. Ravan had already gone to change his clothes.

The two changed their equipment and came to the court, and LaVine looked at Hougist's sneakers enviously, "Your LeBron8 doesn't seem to be a commercially available color, is it customized by your school team?" So handsome! ”

"This pair is an 83-point commemorative edition, which was specially designed for me by the LeBron series equipment team." Haugist replied.

"It seems that you have a really close relationship with Emperor Zhan! I thought you were just friends on Twitter! ”

"That's right, LeBron people are very kind and kind, and he was there for our state's championship last semester!" Hougist said proudly.

"Then why didn't Emperor Zhan invite you to watch his finals?" LaVine asked a question that was very embarrassing for Hougist.

"Uh......"
